In my opinion, if you can recite their name and number then describe their robots from other years, then they are a well known team.

But aside from that, I really don't mind how FIRST does the selections for divisions. I have never really seen a need for splitting up the divisions further and doing more complicated selections. But as someone said above, they could just do it as when teams sign up.

That first division (Archimedes?) looks greusome.
No way, Jose.
Needs to be more balanced than that.

I would assume there would be many teams crying the day those divisions would be announced.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
This might involve a little work but...

How about ranking every team by the average amount of points they have scored each match they have played. In the case of a tie use something like number of wins or the flip of a coin to break the tie. Then the highest ranked team by this process goes to Archimedes, the second to Curie, the third to Galileo, the fourth to Newton, the fifth to Archimedes again, etc.

This ensures that each division is about equal (more equal than the current method), and ensures that a different assortment of teams are in each division, each year.

Re: 2006 Championship Divisions
Is it just me or are the teams currently listed in a bit of a random order on the FIRST site?

http://www.usfirst.org/frc/map/index...list&event=CMP

A division sort from that list may fix the issue of teams never getting to see the three teams on either side of them. Though Murphy may see it as the perfect opporutunity - fixing one problem will cause three new ones.

Don't be scared to post something that is more than "dave is great" "here's my caption contest entry" and "overdrive is the best thing ever". Say something interesting. Say something that will make others think. Create discussion.
If you do say something that isn't just for fun or praising something, which hopefully you do, just be prepared to back up what you said.

Remember: GP is Gracious Professionalism, not Glorifiying Plesantries. Saying something negative does not mean you are evil. It could help someone out a lot.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
